To minimize risk of exposure to and spread of the COVID-19 virus and COVID-19 variants, I am continuing to suspend in-person hypnotherapy sessions with me in my office. Meanwhile, phone, and Zoom consultations ARE and WILL REMAIN AVAILABLE!

Handwriting reveals a lot about a person’s behavioral tendencies and
attitudes, including propensity for stubbornness or over-analysis, levels of self-esteem
and self-confidence, empathy and extroversion/introversion (see my blog titled All
About Emotional and Physical Sexuality, Part 1). It can also reveal if the
writer is experiencing any physical or emotional issues. When a stick-figure
“body” is drawn over a letter, the body-part that is affected will show up as a
weak (faint) or wriggling stroke or line in the corresponding area of the
letter. For example, when my former editor had appendicitis, the lower-right
quadrant of all of the oval letters in his writing—o, a, b, g, p—were faint or
had a tiny gap, until after his surgery and he was healed. A potential problem may also be reflected if
the corresponding area of the letter is very thick and/or has a trailing line
(end-stroke).
In accordance with the California
Business and Professions Code 2908, if a client mentions a symptom or
behavior that is out of my scope of expertise as a certified clinical
hypnotherapist, I always refer the person to a licensed medical or mental
health professional for further evaluation. I do not use handwriting analysis to diagnose medical or mental-health
issues and always defer to the expertise of the professionals in those fields
to provide diagnostic and continuing care.
That being said, following are some examples of how a physiological or
psychological issue may be revealed in a handwriting sample:
- If the person has a problem with the feet or legs, the writing will show a break (gap) in the stem or at the bottom of a loop. Weakness in the upper or lower torso will be reflected in a corresponding break in the upper- or lower-middle part of the loop, etc.
- Affecting words or symptoms of a specific disease, such as cancer or arthritis, will be written at a downward angle (baseline slant). This indicates that the person is trying to get rid of an illness or condition. Negativity and pessimism are also manifested in downward-angle writing.
- The tendency to squeeze letters in a word close together, presence of a check-mark (√) at the base of the stem and has a weak/faint “i” in the writing suggests that person is holding back sexually.
- Emotional/Psychological problems are revealed in openings (gaps) at the bottom of a letter—especially an “o” and an “a”—which indicate incongruent behavior.
